Hi
This is a bit difficult to predict the cut off rank to get a seat as cut off keeps changing every year depending upon various factors like number of students that appeared in the exam, kind of marks obtained by them , toughness level of the jee main examination , number of seats available for the branch you want etc.
But yes,
When we go through previous year trend then ,
In round 6 of josaa counselling 2020 , the closing rank for gender neutral for sc category for other state in NIT Surathkal is provided below
Under home state
Mining Engineering :- 6557 sc rank
Under other state
Mining Engineering :- 6728 sc rank
You can check the same at

So, if you are from SC category then to get a seat in NIT Surathkal you should try to get at least sc rank of around 6500 to be on the safer side
